Thursday 23/12/04 - Christmas Lights Tour


Recommended Posts

If any of you are interested, I will be leading some people through the local southside christmas lights on Thursday night. I'm going on the BCC bus tour tonight and I thought I might just follow that route on thursday night. It's meant to go past most of the award winners on the southside of Brisbane.

If any of you are interested, we'll meet at Crazy Clarks Springwood carpark around 7:00ish. I'll make it earlier so you guys can bring the kids if you wanted to.

If not ones interested in seeing the christmas lights, tell me so and I'll scrap the idea :P

I guess I better take a pen and paper tonight to write down the streets then hey!

Just grab the Bus Drivers map Erin :P

But I should be there! I havent gone looking at chrissy lights for years!

This isn't going to be some full blown christmas lights spectacular, but I'll try my best to follow the same route that the lost bus driver took tonight. Obviously without the wrong turns. But that's half the fun. It went through runcorn, kuraby, algester, parkinson, crestmean, ... more crestmead, then to springwood.

never been to one of these meets before i might come.. if you see a red 34 crusin around its me tryin to find crazy clarks lol.. i think i might no where it is.. its on the left heading towards the coast at a large shopping center is that right?

If you are heading south along the freeway you take the rochedale/springwood exit and go straight through the set of lights at the top. Continue along that same road through another set of lights and it's on the left before the right hand turn off to go to the gold coast.

Seeming it's also late night shopping and 2 nights before christmas, there might be a few parking issues, but most of you know my car, so if you see me... just park and come over.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
